Description

I have a bug in Visual Studio 2008 (but users of VS2010 report problems also) that causes the optimizing compiler to crash. I asked users on the forum to try and reproduce the bug and got positive results. You can see the thread here.

My actual version was VS 2008 Team Edition SP1
My quest to solve this issue started on a separate thread which has even more details.
